Chicago Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman said during Saturday's draft that he is not worried about how much it will cost to retain forwards Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews.

Kane and Toews each asked for $12 million per season during recent negotiations to extend their contracts. ESPN reported that the duo may rework their contracts so the team can add improvements to the roster and remain a contender.

Bowman believes he can extend both players by July 1, the first day they are eligible to sign new deals. They both have one year left on their contracts.

Kane, 25, and Toews, 26, were top-five draft picks by the Blackhawks and started their NHL careers in 2007. Since then, they have won two Stanley Cups, been to six straight playoffs and reached four Western Conference finals.

---The Buffalo Sabres opened the second day of the NHL draft on Saturday by taking forward Brendan Lemieux with the first pick of the second round.

Lemieux, taken No. 31 overall, is the son of former New Jersey Devils star and Stanley Cup champ Claude Lemieux.

Brendan Lemieux played for the Barrie Colts in the Ontario Hockey League. He wears jersey No. 21 because that was his father's number when he played junior hockey and he also inherited the nickname "Pepe" from his father. Lemieux finished tied for third on Barrie with 53 points (27 goals and 26 assists) and led the team with 145 penalty minutes last season.

---The Vancouver Canucks acquired right winger Linden Vey from the Los Angeles Kings for the No. 50 overall pick in the NHL draft on Saturday.

Vey, 22, had five assists in 18 games with the Kings last season. He also had 14 goals and 34 assists in 43 games with the Manchester Monarchs of the AHL. Vey was a fourth-round pick of the Kings in the 2009 draft.

The Kings used the No. 50 pick on defenseman Roland McKeown. The 18-year-old had 11 goals and 32 assists in 62 games with the Kingston Frontenacs of the Ontario Hockey League last season.

---The Blackhawks acquired the No. 83 overall selection in the NHL draft on Saturday from the Calgary Flames in exchange for forward Brandon Bollig.

In 125 NHL regular-season games, Bollig has seven goals and seven assists. He also has a goal and an assist in 24 playoff games in his career with Chicago.

The Maple Leafs also sent the No. 94 pick in the NHL draft to the Blues as part of the deal.
